    Some are "standard Caribbean dialect". iewata + sidung + dem.
    many say the same not just in the Caribbean but North Caroline Gullah / New Orleans + Central America
    -----------------> which means its not slang but a purpose language.

    What brought me to this page was, I recently watched the film “Misbehaviour,” because I have a huge crush on English actress Gugu Mbatha-Raw. In the film, she portrays the first black winner of “The Miss World” title in 1970 “Ms. Grenada” Jennifer Hosten. In the film Gugu speaks with a slight Grenadian accent & I wondered how authentic it was. I wonder if anyone from Grenada had seen the movie & thought she did an accurate portrayal of the accent, or thought it was off?
    If you’ve seen the film & have some thoughts on her performance, please comment!
    Thanks!
